What is Sam & Max: The Devil’s Playhouse about?

Originally released in 2010, Sam & Max: The Devil’s Playhouse is the final chapter in Telltale’s beloved Sam & Max gaming trilogy.

Released as an episodic series, the game followed titular characters Sam and Max, an anthropomorphic Wolfhound and Rabbit, respectively. The characters are detectives who work in New York City, and are often tasked with solving extremely mysterious cases.

“Max has always been the more unhinged member of the Freelance Police — a lovable lunatic with a knack for spreading chaos wherever he goes,” reads the game’s synopsis. “But recently his abilities have taken a supernatural turn. It all started when he stumbled upon a mysterious toy that allows him to glimpse the future. Now Sam & Max have aroused the attention of a host of villains from across the galaxy who are hellbent on acquiring the magical Toys of Power. As those who seek the Devil’s Toybox close in and Max’s psychic abilities grow beyond his control, the Freelance Police will come up against their most frightening adversary yet: the power of Max’s mind.”
